Currently, we are developing a Summer program in Montpellier, France. This year, the program will be held from May 30 through July 3, 2008. The program includes 4 weeks of classroom instruction and local excursions in Montpellier, and one week of excursions at the end of the program - including trips to Bordeaux, Normandy and several days in Paris.

Students participating in the program will earn 6 credits of TTU undergraduate credit (at the 2000, 3000 or 4000 level). The Summer in France program is open to students at TTU who have had at least one year of French.

We will be having our next informational meeting on Wednesday, January 16, 2008 at 4:00 PM in Qualia Room of the Foreign Language Building (located at the basement level of the building), on the Texas Tech Campus.
